The Tech Team
The tech team is the driving force behind OVRSEA's vision: creating tools that will transform international freight transport!

What's it like being a GenAI Engineer at OVRSEA? 🤖
GenAI is becoming a core component of digital freight forwarding. We handle thousands of documents and emails daily. While the data is highly unstructured, Large Language Models (LLMs) excel at understanding it and helping our team automate repetitive tasks.
As a GenAI Engineer, your goal is to lay the foundations of our GenAI Platform for the coming years. This role combines engineering, product management, and GenAI conception. You'll collaborate with the tech team to apply software engineering best practices to AI development (CI/CD, observability, etc.), construct tools to enhance AI algorithm performance and usage (human-in-the-loop, etc.), and engage in prompt engineering and agent development.
We have the unique privilege of building a product in a complex, largely undigitalized market. As pioneers in this field, the challenge is incredibly exciting!
This position is open for both our Paris and Marseille offices.
